We woke up to goodies in our baskets, and our yard full of eggs! That sneaky Bunny came while we were sleeping and left a whole bunch of cool stuff. Tayler was the first to see the goodies, as she was up at 6:45. She then came in to tell me (she's allowed to look but not touch until everyone is awake) that she'd been left a CD she's being wanting, a Junie B. Jones book (one of her favorite series of books) and a lot of candy. PLUS, our back yard was littered with colorful little eggs. Unfortunately, as we told her the night before, Tayler had to wait for Carson to wake up before we tore into everything. Which meant a PAINFUL wait until 9:30!!! She passed the time by trying to see everything in her basket and listening at Carson's door for sounds of him waking! Once everyone was up, it was time to see the goods! Tayler was SO excited about what was in her basket, and it was really neat because this is the first year that Carson "got it". He got a really neat car that he's been pushing around the house all day, and a blue punch-balloon that he was just happy as can be about. And of course, CANDY.
Then it was out to the yard! Off to search for eggs full of goodies. Again, this is the first year that Carson was able to participate without constant encouragement. The look on his face when he saw another egg was absolutely priceless! He'd scurry over and grab it, then carefully put it in his basket. It was adorable. And Tayler, being the great big sis that she is, let Carson get all of the "easy" eggs. She went for the trickier ones, hidden in plants, and other places in the yard. And since the hunt, then breakfast, then a trip to Home Depot, and yard work, we've found TWO more eggs! What a treat! Hopefully we've got them all now!
